Hi Jason,
Thanks for your reply.
I told Myth to record a currently showing programme (The Weakest Link), with
it set to "Record only this showing" (appropriate for a film let's say).
The recording then showed up green in the menu to say that it was recording.
We'll then assume that the recording has stalled.
I then selected I->Stop Recording->Yes, Stop Recording. The recording goes
white to indicate that recording has ceased.
I then selected I->Recording Options->Edit Recording Schedule.
It wasn't set to "Do not record this program", it was still set to "Record
only this showing". I selected Save, nothing happened.
I tried I->Recording Options->Allow This Program To Rerecord, and nothing
happened.
In fact, if I deleted the program asked Myth to record it again freshly
through the schedules, nothing happened. Nothing happened if I clicked
"forget old" either. As far as Myth is concerned the program is already
recorded and no rescheduling or telling it to allow re-record will get it
recording again.
For completeness, I'm running Kubuntu 9.10, Myth 0.22 out of the repos
(0.22.0+fixes22594), and the theme is "Mythbuntu widescreen".
All suggestions welcome, and thanks for your time,
MG
